Anyone have experience with titanium knives in general? I know some divers use them but not sure how they compare for us land lovers to more traditional knife steels?

I don't but initially I thought titanium was too brittle to be efficient for that application.
All I know is that I have two knifes one from Eibar (Spain) and the other from Schoninger (Germany) that cut like razors and stay sharp for a long time even after abuse and they are not heavy at all. not sure why anyone would need anything else with these type of steels that are time tested.

I think I want to look into a nice knife with Solingen steel....

I like knives to have some weight to them. I imagine a titanium knife would feel very light.

I bet titanium knives are a mother fukker to sharpen!

Solingen that is the right name!!! I guess someone got the spelling right!!! LOL I have some scissors from them too that I have never sharpened for 30 years and even cut small electrical cables with them and still cut like day one!! lol.
